    You can have Bollywood. I suspect it's the food the Indians eat but they continue to stink long afterward. It's brutal.

    Negative. The education system works if you let it. When the family is fucked up and doesn't care (thus the kids don't care or have a tumultuous life) the best school in the world won't do you any good. Lead a horse to water and all that.

    I agree with your point re: parents, but I know several American teachers in various states who will tell you unequivocally that your education is broken and has been broken for quite some time.

    Here's a good (and free!) book to read:

    Don't you think it's loosely bound to the type of racism because these rich people behave badly with dark people.

    I'm not flaming the discussion of rich vs poor. BTW!

    That's possible but usually they tell students not to watch television at all.

    I agree what you're saying that there will be no one as special but at least there will not be any definition of beauty. As you said beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

    Exactly my point.
    When celebrities come on reality shows and they publish these products and on top of that they kinda threaten locals by saying if you don't use it you won't be like me instead you'll be a loser. That means if someone likes to be in a way which is opposite of the celebrity's statement is considered as a loser.

    I'm not even against of that. If someone wants a big boob'd woman with a tight white ass, it's their choice.

    How someone feels about their own looks is their problem. How about saying "Hmmm, no, I really don't need to look like a celebrity to feel good about myself?"

    Advertisers want to sell us lots of things. WE get to decide if we buy.

    Yup it's a personal choice after all. It's just people get trapped in the tricks of such advertisers.
